Bundoora Parkland (my rating: B)

I decided to visit the park after reading the info about Bundoora Parkland on the council website (and other webs) and studying the map.

Mt Cooper Summit was the first stop. It's 137m above the sea level and it's the highest point in the metro Melbourne.  You'll like here if you like to overlook the city from a hilltop.  The offleash area is nice, away from the noise and crowd.  The hillside slope gave the kids opportunity running up and down burning their energy.  After that, the kids spent hours looking for 4-leaf clovers.

Then we went to the other offleash area (the south side of the park).  The playground near that offleash area is a playspace, fenced up and big.  The kids had fun there too.  We passed the Bundoora Park Farm,  Jessica and the sheep had an interesting moment staring at each other over the fence.

Compared to Darebin  Parkland, this park doesn't feel as "bushy" as Darebin Parkland.  Personally, I would prefer Darebin Parkland.
